Yeah, a little harsh there---note I was asking for help on exactly this
problem about a year ago. As it, I haven't even heard of this tag. But
it might just do the trick, which would considerably simplify the code.
Will, if it's alright with you, maybe I can shoot you some HTML files to
test while I look into this? This is a good opportunity to muck out
that area anyway.
Thanks!
